Definitions
- This invention relates to fasteners for joining components, and in particular to a new and improved fastener suitable for use when components are to be jointed and disconnected rapidly while at the same time requiring relatively large forces for bringing the components together.
- Fasteners for rapid fastening and release operations have been in use for a considerable period of time, especially in the aerospace industry. At the same time, it is desirable to avoid requiring any special tools for operating the fasteners, since these special tools must be available whenever and wherever access is required.
- the quarter turn fastener does not have the capability of drawing structures or components together over separations of several inches, but is limited to small fractions of an inch.
- threaded fasteners or elaborate latching mechanisms are used where the component spacing is in the order of inches.
- Large "V" bands currently used for securing sections of aircraft engines together require tightening through several inches into a preload of thousands of pounds and represent one application where a high speed fastener operable over a range of inches and capable of exerting high forces is required.
- a special tool such as speed wrenches must be used for fastening with common threaded fasteners.
- Latching devices for such applications suffer from greater weight and size and also from the inability to provide accurate preloading on components being fastened.
- Another object is to provide such a multiple speed fastener which operates in essentially the same manner as a common bolt, while requiring relatively few turns so that the fastener can be operated with an ordinary wrench.
- a particular object of the invention is to provide such a multiple speed fastener which operates with a high pitch thread until a particular operating load is reached, and then automatically continues operating with a low pitch thread with increased mechanical advantage until the closing operation is completed.
- the presently preferred embodiment of the invention is a multiple speed fastener having a first pair of interengageable threaded members with a first pitch and a first thread direction, a second pair of interengageable threaded members with a second pitch different from the first pitch and a second thread direction different from the first thread direction, the first pair including a first actuator threadably engageable with a first threaded member and the second pair including a second actuator threadably engageable with a second threaded member, and a coupling means for coupling the first pair to the second pair, with the first actuator and the coupling means having first means for selectively engaging the first actuator and coupling means to rotate the coupling means with the first actuator, and with the coupling means and the second actuator having second means for engaging the second actuator to rotate the second threaded member when the first actuator and coupling means are engaged.
- the coupling means of the invention also provides for bringing the threaded members together at a fast rate to a predetermined position and then changing to a slow rate to bring the threaded members closer together.
- the fastener of the invention which provides for drawing first and second structure members together and securing them in position, includes a plurality of pairs of dissimilarly threaded elements, each of the pairs having matching male and female parts, a continuous elongated member, means for slideably and rotatably mounting the pairs as an assembly on the continuous elongated member extending through the threaded elements, the assembly having adjacent one end an accommodation for a turning tool and on the opposing end a captivating means to secure the pairs of threaded elements on the elongated member, with the accommodation for a turning tool including means for transmitting applied turning forces simultaneously and independently to the pairs of threaded elements, initially rapidly drawing the first structure member to the second structure member and subsequently transmitting applied turning forces to only one of the pairs of threaded elements less rapidly drawing the first structure member to the second structure member, for securing the structure members into a highly loaded position by applying fewer turns of the turning tool with less turning force than would be required for a single threaded element.
- FIG. 1 is an axial sectional view of a multiple speed fastener in the fully open position and incorporating the presently preferred embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a view similar to that of FIG. 1 showing the fastener position at the transition from high speed to low speed operation;
- FIG. 3 is a view similar to that of FIGS. 1 and 2 showing the fastener in the fully closed position;
- FIG. 4 is an exploded view showing the components of the fastener of FIGS. 1-3;
- FIG. 4A is a partial view of the drive member 22 of FIG. 4, showing an alternate form of the opening 35;
- FIG. 5 is a view illustrating the use of the fastener in a radome type installation
- FIG. 6 is a view similar to that of FIG. 5 illustrating the use of the fastener in a cowling type application.
- FIG. 7 is a view similar to that of FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrating the use of the fastener with a "V" band.
- the fastener of the invention includes a shaft or through bolt 11, with a head 12 at one end and with a thrust spring 13 and nut 14 at the other end.
- a first pair of interengageable threaded members or elements comprising a first actuator 15 and a first threaded member or plate 16 is carried on the shaft 11.
- the actuator 15 has an external or male thread for engaging an internal or female thread of the first threaded member 16. In the embodiment illustrated, this thread is left-handed and has a relatively fine pitch or a fine lead thread.
- a second pair of interengageable threaded members or elements comprising a second actuator 19 and second threaded member or plate 20 is also mounted on the shaft 11.
- the second actuator 19 has an external or male thread for engaging an internal or female thread on the plate 20.
- the thread is right-handed and has a relatively coarse pitch or a fast lead thread.
- a coupling assembly is provided for coupling the first actuator 15 to the second actuator 19 and includes a drive member 22, a driver member 23 with an elongated non-round rod or sleeve 24, and a spring 25.
- the spring, end caps, the drive member and the driver member are positioned on the shaft 11.
- the spring has end caps 26 over each end of the spring for centering the spring on the shaft.
- the second actuator 19 has an internal passage which mates with the external shape of the rod 24 and is positioned on the rod for rotation with the driver member 23.
- the driver member 23 and the threaded member or plate 20 have mating components for joining the two members for rotation under certain conditions, and in the embodiment illustrated, a serrated outer surface 27 on the driver member 23 engages a serrated inner surface 28 of the second plate 20. Similar means are provided for coupling the first actuator 15 to the drive member 22, comprising an inner gear tooth or spline on the first actuator 15 and an outer gear tooth or spline shaft on the drive member 22.
- the drive member 22 and driver member 23 are joined by pins 34 in aligned radial openings 35, 36.
- the pins 34 are push fits in the openings 36 of the driver member 23.
- the pins are slip fits in the openings 35 in the drive member 22.
- the openings 35 may be circular as illustrated in FIG. 4 or may be trangular as seen in FIG. 4A. The circular opening is presently preferred. With this arrangement, the drive member and driver member are joined for rotational movement, but can translate axially with respect to each other.
- the driver member 23 has a flange 43 positioned within a flange 44 of the first threaded member 16, with the driver member held in engagement with the first threaded member by a snap ring 45.
- the fastener is shown in the open position in FIG. 1, with the first plate 16 attached to a first structure 39 and the second plate 20 attached to a second structure 40, by welding or by bolts or otherwise as desired.
- the purpose of the fastener is to draw the structures 39, 40 together rapidly initially and ultimately with a high force, using a conventional tool such as a wrench.
- An accommodation for a turning tool, typically a conventional bolt head 41, is provided on the first actuator 15 for rotation of the first actuator with a conventional tool, such as a wrench.
- the shaft 11 is rotated clockwise as viewed from the bolt head end. This rotation of the fine thread of the actuator 15 moves the first plate 16 and the first structure 39 along the shaft 11, to the right as seen in FIG. 1.
- the rotation of the first actuator 15 also rotates the coarse thread second actuator 19 and moves the second plate 20 and second structure 40 to the left.
- the drive member 22 In the initial position of FIG. 1, the drive member 22 is within the first actuator 15, with the spline shaft 30 of the drive member engaging the spline 29 of the actuator.
- the threaded member 16 moves to the right and carries the driver member 23 and drive member 22 with it, by means of the snap ring 45 and pins 34.
- the spline shaft 30 of the drive member 22 moves out of engagement with the spline 29 of the actuator 15 to the position of FIG. 2.
- rotation of the drive member 22, driver member 23 and second actuator 19 ceases.
- the serrated outer surface 27 of the driver member 23 engages the serrated inner surface 28 of the second plate 20 to prevent the driver member from further turning, locking the coarse threaded member 19 from threading back out of the second plate member 20.
- the spring disengages the drive member 22 from the actuator 15 when the actuator 19 has been rotated to its full extent at the end of the threads.
- the operator senses the engagement of the stop and releases the torque on the bolt head of the actuator 15. This release of torque permits the spring 25 to push the drive member 22 out of engagement with the actuator 15, moving the drive member 22 from the position of FIG. 2 to the position of FIG. 3.
- the multiple speed fastener of the invention is shown in FIG. 5 in use for joining portions 48, 49 of a radome or the like, with the structure 39 attached to the portion 48 and the structure 40 attached to the portion 49.
- a sealing gasket 50 is provided between the structures 39, 40.
- the shaft 11 has an internal socket head 12A for operation of the fastener through an opening 51 in the portion 48 of the radome.
- Components 16 and 20 may have mounting flanges 16A, 20A, respectively, for attachment to the structures 39, 40, respectively.
- FIG. 6 Another application for the multiple speed fastener in an engine cowling is shown in FIG. 6, with portions 52, 53 of the cowling being connected to structures 39, 40, respectively.
- the shaft 11 is driven by a bevel gear 54 which engages a bevel gear head 12B of the shaft 11, with the gear 54 driven through a socket 55 in an opening 56 in the cowling.
- FIG. 7 Another application utilizing a "V" band type band fastener is shown in FIG. 7.
- the first threaded member or plate 16 has a pin 39A which engages ears 59 of a "V" band 60, and the second threaded member or plate 20 has another pin 40A which rides in a slot of ears 61 of the "V" band.
